Now the fun begins………. again, lol.

Always cars being wrecked on Ebay. But can be expensive buying individual parts though.

Here is some of mine.

Sorry for the double up. Had problems uploading them.

yeah that’s what I liked about it, had to drop the coolant in my mates Vt last year, due to a faulty new radiator (slightly leaking) had to do it twice as the relplacement lasted about 3 weeks after that

I did spot a radiator drain plug with a ball valve and barb on it. So might go that way

hey cava, just a quick question about your old VR, you fitted a drain to the bottom radiator hose, what did you use?

I was leaning towards something like this

That’s kind of in the middle of the price range, other similar brands are $150-$200 for the same type

i know there are some other basic timing lights for $30-$40…[Read more]

Yes it is a conversion. I put the cluster in from the wreck I got the 5ltr out of. Also tried three other clusters mixing and matching boards and tachos and no luck. Thinking it might be the ignition module, I have been told that it can sometimes be the issue.

Yeah, tacho is the only thing different from what I found out.

Nice pick up from UPI. I did the stoneguard treatment too when I did the conversion. Neatens it up nicely.

yeah thats the one i’ve ordered

no worries, photos are just what i need

thanks for that

Have ordered the hose just need to see if i can get that metal clip that it bolts to the pump, Wonder if VN-VR V6’s what apparently use the same hose have that clip. might have to go for a trip to the wreckers

Maybe later,  struggling to get the accelerator bracket 100%, if I run one I would like to fit the vt type cause there a bit smaller, then hide it under the gaurd

They have a bracket spot welded in right next to the V8 ignition Module

so I just drilled the weld out and riveted  it back into mine. Only problem was mine was out a silver car  as it’s very rare to see a v8 in my cars colour, but it wasn’t really that noticeable
